I'm a little late again...the holidays will do that to you.

Tired of seeing the same authors rec'd over and over.

Why not do a little recommending of your own?

The WRITER'S AND READER'S CHOICE
gives you, the writers and readers of MFU fanfiction,
the opportunity to post your personal picks,
be it your own stories or those of your favorite author.

Dig up those stories from way back when and revive them here,
or rec a more recently written piece.

Post a link to them here in section7mfu

Just remember this is a gen site,
however that being said, you may also rec stories
of a gen-mature nature that contain violence, torture, or mild het.

How about posting some New years-themed MFU stories?
